Course content<\/strong><\/h4>\n

How is it possible that people go home, turn on the TV and watch exactly the same programme with an identical can of beer in their hand without any conscious coordination? Why is it that children of intellectual families are more likely to become intellectuals even though in theory the career is open to everyone? How are social groups formed and maintained? One set of sociological theories answer these and similar questions with reference to the \u201chard\u201d variables of society and economy, and treat culture as\u00a0 side-effect.\u00a0 Theories following the \u201ccultural turn\u201d, on the other hand, attribute a central role to culture in the formation of society, everyday life and even the economy. This course introduces students to the key theories and debates associated with the \u201ccultural turn\u201d. We will discuss differences and similarities between social and cultural theory, recent developments and critical perspective.<\/p>\n
